Number of menus in the menubar
Message 1 in thread
Hi,
Is there a way to determine the number of menus in the menubar?
For example: If the menubar was "File Edit View Help" I need to know
there are 4 menus.
I do not create the menus so I cannot count them when created.
Thanks.
Don

I would try to iterate over the QMenuBar's children and find the QMenu's in there. That should work, I guess. Alternatively, you could try looking into QWidget::actions(), and see if that yields anything usefull. Note that I did not try either method myself.

Thanks AndrÃ,
The following worked:
QList<QMenu *> allMenus = menubar->findChildren<QMenu *>();
std::cout << allMenus.count() << std::endl;
for(int i=0; i<allMenus.count(); i++)
{
//menubar->removeAction(allMenus.at(i)->menuAction());
}
This gave me a list of menus prior to me adding to it. I could then add another list and switch between them.

You could also try and use the aboutToShow signal on the menus themselves.. And create the actions going in at that point.
